given obama's atrocious record and given he had nothing to offer for the next four years except for more of the same, it should have been a cakewalk for romney to defy him. when the republicans distinguish themselves from democrat, they win. when they run as democrats like, they lose. democrats always run to the left end of the political spectrum. republicans have always enjoyed the support of conservatives and that number is at least double the number of liberals. hence you support the conservative agenda, you win. obama did not support the conservative agenda, and neither did mitt romney. at the end of the day, conservatives or left out in the cold. it should have been a landslide for romney but he's a moderate in his campaign in part on a bizarre defense from the outset. republicans in congress perform more dismally, as possible. for the past four years, the conservatives have been telling the republicans in congress that they would find -- they would tell us they would choose to fight but we take the senate in 2012. the conservatives want senate leadership that when was if it if woul
